Where did you read this info?
As far as I know, it concerns only the “advanced” products now - avast! Server Edition, BART, etc. The license code did not change for avast! Home / Pro - it’s still the same.

Well, as the title says, it was only suggestions.
This particular feature has been inplemented in fact, but then it was decided that it will not be used for Home/Pro versions (since it would require every existing user to update his/her key).
